Reports of injuries caused by kickboxing, one of the contact sports that potentially causes a large number of injuries, are relatively rare. Wearing a mouthguard is obligatory in kickboxing, but the association between maxillofacial injuries and the quality of mouthguards has not been described thus far. In this article, we present a case of mandibular fracture in a 25-year-old male, who was injured during kickboxing despite wearing a mouth formed mouthguard.
踢拳是一项可能导致大量伤害的接触性运动,关于踢拳造成伤害的报道相对较少。在踢拳运动中必须佩戴护齿,但迄今为止,尚未有关于颌面部损伤与护齿质量之间关系的描述。在本文中,我们报告了一例25岁男性下颌骨骨折的病例,该患者在踢拳过程中受伤,尽管当时佩戴了定制的护齿。
